@jeanniesmiles Hahah yes, unfortunately, bleaching has to be done to achieve loud colors in their true form. It's an hour more at the salon, and a little more money, but worth it coz I actually don't bleach it every time I change a color. So far I've only bleached it twice, at low degrees. Give it a shot! Go for your Katy Perry purple! =D
@prerna26 Thanks Prerna! I'm so happy to share my joy with all of you! And welcome to my blog, hope you enjoy your stay! See you around! =)
@jaraine You're brave! I really didn't wanna take the risk! =X
@prerna26 I've heard that some shades are patchier and drier than others. Bold Gold and Painted Purple are the ones with the most 'complaints'.
@ckwan_95A primer a really important! I never ever go without one, coz it helps to smoothen out the skin surface by filling in the lines and bumps, and some primers even go beyond that, like providing tone correction. I used to use the Monistat one, and I have oily+acne-prone skin. No problem at all.
But I've found a better one - Lioele Dollish Veil Vita BB. SUPER FAVORITE PRIMER! Lol! I use the Natural Green, which instantly counteracts the redness in my skin and brightens it.
It has worked very well for me and I use it on a daily basis. Holy Grail material. http://www.dolltodollcosmetics.com/shop/bb-cream-tinted-moisturizer/lioele-dollish-veil-vita-bb-spf-25-pa/
@BAMBIx Thanks my dear! Yes! 'Non-comedogenic' is precious! I don't get any breakouts or irritation at all. EBS is a brand? I've never heard of it =P
@sn0w_f1ake Wow, the MUFE was such a loonnngggg time ago! Lol. I really am unable to give you a comparison without doubting myself along the way coz I cannot remember much. Haha! That's what I want to know too! Hope a reader who owns both now can help us =)
@luxiz O4 is yellow and orange? So it doesn't suit you? Maybe you could go back to the counter and find the assistant who did the match for you. =(
@Peony From experimentation and comparisons. Foundations with pink undertones don't work at all, and even some neutral ones don't match that well. When I'm by myself, it isn't obvious, but when I stand beside people, it's quite obvious. Haha!
@AudreyLee In my opinion and from personal experience, it doesn't. Hmmm, sometimes SAs are not so reliable, it'd be best to take it upon yourself and do the swatch. It would be good if you know your MAC, Lancome, Estee Lauder shade-equivalent too. =)
@Sam Lim Phew! Great to know that! Thanks for finding the specific info for me!
I understand the part about montages of childhood photos, some people still use PowerPoint now - OMGG NOOO!! But I guess a large part of our growing up years was spent together so... the pictures will be shown, but done with taste, yes please. Haha!
Did you take leave from work to plan your wedding? Brides-to-be taking time off work for a year just to plan their dream wedding seems so common these days. I'd rather throw everything (okie, most) to the wedding planner and take some stress off it. Then again, I don't know, I haven't decided! =P
@shuzk HAHHAHA! No la! What 'sift'! XD That would be a really happy problem though. Lol!
I hope to find a good wedding planner coz I know I confirm will be stressed out when things don't go according to plan on the big day! I don't want people to remember me as BRIDEZILLA OF THE YEAR. Hahaha!
Hey help me keep a lookout for nice garden settings can? You have plenty of lobang! =D
@Esther1988 There should be a period of 5-6 weeks between treatments and I just did my second session, while watching Running Man. Haha! Because only shaving is allowed, it kinda irritates me that the hair on the legs grow out SO FAST. With epilation, they only show after a week or so, but with shaving I find that I have to do it almost every other day.
I use it on my legs and upper lip, and so far, I think the upper lip has shown a more obvious improvement, maybe coz there is much less hair there anyway.
I've done IPL hair removal for my underarms at a salon before and I remember I also had to wait for a few sessions before the hair follicles got 'killed' and less grew out. The underarm area was even more problematic coz you cannot NOT shave! LOL! Had to shave EVERYDAY! But now, more than a year after I started, I shave only...... erm, I can't remember the last time I shaved my underarms.
So I believe the hairs on the legs is going through the process now and in a few sessions, there would be less hair regrowth. In fact, just after the 2nd session, I see that regrowth is much slower now. I haven't shaved in 3 days.
HAHAHAHA TO MUCH INFO?!?!?? XD
@Chloe It shouldn't be, but where to exactly? Wherever dolltodollcosmetics.com can ship to, I can too. Heehee.
@genevieveAwww thanks dear! I miss my long hair! I think I looked more feminine back then. Now more spunky, especially with the crazy colors (why am I praising myself HAHAHA!!)
Yes, I agree with you on the part where the roll-concealer isn't a hardcore one. It really just gives a very light layer of hmmm... brightening element, I guess?
The foam? You mean the Multi-Action Foam Cleanser? I don't like it.. It's toooooo dry for me! Maybe you could check out the one that I like, the face wash. =)
@kiradyn Hmmm.... I think back acne is rather different from acne on the face? I'm not too sure about this though so I don't want to give any advice. My friends who have back acne usually see a doctor for proper medication and creams.
@Elaine Really? Where do you find hazel water? But I'm afraid of disrupting the composition and having it create havoc on my skin that is sensitive to certain ingredients/mixture/I-don't-know-what.
@mintymilky Oops sorry for the late reply. The Bourjois 123 is slightly more yellow. More warm-neutral, actually.
@Blingylingy I went to take a look at it right after reading your comment! Didn't manage to swatch it at the store though. I'll check it out again. Thanks for sharing! =)
